Bruno still used the Teleportation Circle to enter Coldkira City. Now that they were at war, the city gates were closed. The only way to enter the city was through the Teleportation Circle. Bruno chose 20 of the best soldiers in the team and brought them to the nearest small city. Then, they teleported into the city.
As soon as they stepped out of the Teleportation Circle, a large group of soldiers surrounded them. At this time, even the Teleportation Circle could not be used by ordinary people. If they did not state their identity, they would even kill unrelated civilians. They could also kill the wrong people.
"I am the emissary of the Archduke of Aquitaine. I have important information for Archduke Martelli!" Bruno immediately stated his identity. The Teleportation Circle was surrounded by city guards. If his men teleported one by one, they would be sending themselves to their deaths.
"The emissary of the Archduke of Aquitaine? What's the secret code? "A man who looked like the captain immediately asked. This was an important matter, and he did not dare to be negligent.
Both sides immediately exchanged the secret code. As expected, they matched up. The captain on this side also heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like they were not enemies. Soon, the remaining 20 people also teleported over. As they had confirmed that they were on the same side, there were no accidents.
The captain looked at Bruno and asked, "What instructions does the Archduke of Aquitaine have?"
"I need to see Archduke Martelli immediately. May I know where the Archduke is now?" Bruno said anxiously. He seemed to be in a hurry.
"The Duke is currently observing the situation on the east wall. I will lead the way." Seeing that Bruno was in a hurry, the captain guessed that it was something important. So, he immediately said, "All of you stay here and watch. Do not let anyone suspicious in."
"Yes!" the surrounding soldiers replied in unison.
Following the captain, Bruno came to the wall above the east wall. At this time, Martelli was anxiously looking at the situation outside. Seeing that his troops seemed to be unable to hold on for much longer, he was anxious. However, looking at Li Huailin's troops in the distance, it seemed like they were still fighting with Duke Lotner's troops (in fact, they were just chopping corpses for fun). Martelli really hoped that Li Huailin's troops would win quickly. Otherwise, his troops would be in danger.
"Sir! The Archduke of Aquitaine has sent an emissary! "the soldier beside him reported.
"Quick … invite him in," Duke Martelli said immediately. He was really anxious, hoping for good news.
Soon, Bruno was invited. Duke Martelli seemed to remember meeting this general when he went to Li Huailin's territory. Because he looked like a valiant general, he had some impression of him, so he relaxed a little.
"What does the Archduke of Aquitaine want?" Martelli immediately asked.
"It's like this, Grand Duke Martelli. Our Marshal has just killed one of Duke Lautner's generals. Judging from his attire, he looks like Duke Lautner. However, no one in our army has ever seen Duke Lautner before, so we can't be sure. The Marshal asked me to help you identify him," Bruno said.
"What?" Martelli was shocked. Lautner was dead? Is this real? That's great. If this news is real, then I've already won this battle. As for the fact that Li Huailin had never seen Duke Lautner before, Martelli didn't doubt it too much. Li Huailin was a new noble, and it was his first time meeting Li Huailin. It wasn't strange that he didn't know Duke Lautner. Martelli also didn't know that Li Huailin had pulled Maccon from the 2nd Division to help, so she didn't suspect anything.
"Yes, the enemy's head is here. Please take a look, Grand Duke," Bruno said, holding a wooden box in front of him.
"Quick! Let me take a look. " Martelli was really anxious. Any piece of good news would be enough, but he didn't expect it to be this good. The huge surprise made him lose his ability to judge, and he took the initiative to walk over to take a look at the wooden box.
Bruno didn't rush to make a move when he saw the enemy walking over. Instead, he gave his subordinates a look. The 20 soldiers at the side immediately slowly approached the nearby guards, their hands slowly touching their swords, ready to strike at any time.
Duke Martelli ran to Bruno anxiously and immediately opened the wooden box. Naturally, the head of Duke Lautner was in the box, but there were some bloodstains. Martelli took a closer look, and his heart was filled with joy.
"Yes! Yes! This … this is Duke Lautner's … "
Whoosh. Just as the soldiers were about to rejoice, there was a sudden change. Martelli, who was examining the head, suddenly had his own head fly off, and then blood splattered everywhere.
The group of soldiers couldn't react at all, because it had happened too suddenly. How could they know that Li Huailin's troops would suddenly attack them, and even assassinate Duke Martelli?
Before they could recover from the shock, the 20 soldiers at the side all drew their swords and slashed at the guards beside them. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.
"Don't get caught up in the fight. The Marshal is waiting for our heads!" Bruno picked up Martelli's head beside him, and then took back Duke Lautner's head that he had dropped during the sneak attack. He turned around and shouted at the soldiers, "Follow me and kill our way out!"
"What's going on?!" The captain of the city guards who had brought Bruno over hurriedly took out his weapon and stood in front of Bruno. "You're not someone sent by the Archduke of Aquitaine! You're a spy! "
"Idiot." Bruno smiled faintly. These people still thought that their marshal was an ally. What a bunch of idiots. As he thought about it, his hands didn't slow down. He raised his sword and slashed at the city guard captain.
"Kill them …" The City Guard Captain shouted as he raised his sword to block Blueno's attack. However, the situation was completely different from what he had imagined. Blueno's attack directly cut his sword in two, and the momentum of the sword didn't stop. With another slash, the Captain was cut in two.
"Retreat!" Bruno continued to shout. Although there were fewer guards in the city, they still outnumbered them by a lot. Staying here was equivalent to waiting for death.
The 20 soldiers immediately ran back to the teleportation point. The remaining guards of Martelli also recovered from the shock. Although they didn't know what was going on, they had to take down these few people. Hence, they raised their weapons and chased after them.
"Captain, you go first. We'll stop them here." Seeing the enemy's troops rushing over, a dozen soldiers suddenly stepped out and shouted at Bruno.
"What! What are you talking about! Retreat with me! "Bruno said immediately.
"Captain, hurry up and bring the heads back. The Marshal is still waiting for your news. We are willing to die for the Marshal!" The group of soldiers said as they raised their weapons.
Bruno had mixed feelings when he saw the determination in his subordinates' eyes. However, the Marshal's orders were indeed more important now. Hence, he didn't hesitate. He nodded and continued to rush towards the teleportation point with the heads.
"Everyone! Every second they could buy was a second! Long live the Marshal! "
"Long live the Marshal!" The remaining soldiers shouted in unison. They didn't feel like they were about to die at all.
At the teleportation point of Colghira City, the soldiers standing guard at the entrance saw a person rushing towards them from afar. It was currently a time of war, and ordinary citizens weren't allowed to go on the streets. This was very obvious and attracted their attention. However, when they got closer and saw the attire, wasn't this the Archduke of Aquitaine's emissary? Why did he come back alone?
"Eh? Why did he come back alone? Where's the captain? "Seeing Bruno approaching, the guard at the side asked curiously.
Bruno naturally wouldn't answer and continued to rush forward.
"Eh! Why are you covered in blood?! "Soon, someone noticed the problem and immediately shouted at Bruno.
"No! Something's wrong! Stop, stop! "The soldiers at the side immediately realized that something was wrong.
Bruno completely ignored them. He raised his sword and cut down two soldiers who came forward to stop him. Then, he rushed into the teleportation point.
"Stop him! Stop him! "The remaining soldiers immediately shouted at the guards inside.
"What's going on?!" The guards inside were naturally alarmed. However, as soon as they went out to see what was going on, a guy covered in blood rushed towards them. Although they didn't know what was going on, they could tell that this guy wasn't a good person. The guards immediately raised their spears. "Stop! Don't move! "
When Bruno saw that there were too many of them, he immediately looked to the side. Coincidentally, there was a big solid wood table next to him. Bruno directly picked up the table and threw it at the soldiers in front of him.
"F * ck!" When the soldiers saw this, they quickly dodged to the side. It wasn't a big deal to be smashed, but the formation was in chaos. Bruno quickly sped up and jumped into the teleportation point.
"Stab him to death!"
A group of soldiers immediately raised their spears and stabbed at Bruno. Bruno quickly activated the teleportation point. A white light flashed, and some blood was left on the teleportation point. However, Bruno had already teleported away.
"This … what the hell is going on? Isn't this guy the Archduke of Aquitaine's emissary?" With Bruno gone, the group of soldiers who still didn't know what was going on didn't know what to do. What should they do now? Should they chase after him or not? Their captain had disappeared. Who could they ask?
At this moment, the guards who were chasing after Bruno arrived. Looking at the group of soldiers standing there in a daze, they asked, "Where is he? Where's the person who claimed to be the Archduke of Aquitaine's emissary? "
"He took the teleportation point and left," a soldier replied.
"You bunch of trash! The Duke has been assassinated. He's the assassin! "the guard immediately roared.
"What! The Duke is dead? "This news was too shocking. Everyone was instantly stunned.
Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak. After a while, a soldier asked weakly, "What … what do we do now?"
"How the f * ck would I know?" No one could make the decision. No one knew what to do now.
